How often do you clean your suppressors?

How often do you clean your surppressor? I have a Thunder Beast Ultra 7 with about 250 rounds through it. Thank you in advance . Jason

I clean my rimfire suppressors every 500 rounds. If I don’t, they drop gunk down into the chamber and jam things up.

I haven’t had any reason to clean my center fire suppressors yet, some of which have thousands of rounds through them.

Same here.

I’ve never cleaned a centerfire suppressor.

I was wondering if it was necessary or they self clean with the force of the gasses …

They "self clean" and actually sound slightly better when they are dirty. I cleaned one of mine after 2500ish rounds just to see and I was shocked at how much came out. I will actually clean all mine every 1000ish rounds going forward. No, really down side other than a little elbow grease.

Thunderbeast recommends cleaning when the can gains a couple ounces if that makes sense.

I clean my suppressors fairly regularly. I’ve had a few times on hunts when carbon fell Down in into the chamber and made loading a round hard to do.

i clean the threads with some carbon cutter every time i remove the suppressor.
